I have a copy of a favorite cozy writer's new book, Glitter Bomb in the New Orleans Scrapbooking Mystery series. It's been a while since I read the series, so this book looks very attractive.
Glitter Bomb by Laura Childs, October 2, 2018, thanks to Berkley Books
Genre: cozy mystery series
Setting: New Orleans
An exploding Mardi Gras float is used as a murder weapon.
Another arrival is from Seventh Street Books with a much more serious book cover.
The Devil's Wind by Steve Goble, A Spider John's Mystery, September 11, 2018.
The mystery is historical, featuring a pirate as sleuth, solving a murder on the high seas..
What books will you be reading this week?

It's an odd idea, isn't it? A light mystery. But so many of us are taken with light mysteries. I suppose it is because the world is often so heavy.
ReplyDeleteI hope to be reading and reviewing some light books this week. I think I may read some children's books.
I've been reading psychological thrillers recently, much more realistic novels, so it's nice to read a book that focuses on the story rather than on the characters.
DeleteI haven't heard about these books but they look fun. i hope you enjoy your haul :)
ReplyDeleteMy wrap-up: https://flippingthruthepages.com/2018/09/weekly-wrap-up-1/
Hope you like A Man Called Ove. I enjoyed the book and the movie too.
DeleteI love books set in New Orleans...and Glitter Bomb does sound like fun. Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteClosest I can get to Mardi Gras right now!
DeleteBoth of these sound good and I've enjoyed other books by Laura Childs. Happy reading:)

Eager to read about the sleuth pirate too.
DeleteGlitter Bomb has an appealing, colorful cover! Enjoy your reading this week, Harvee!

ReplyDeleteI have to attend Mardi Gras through books!

DeleteOh a pirate sleuth - sounds fun. I love the cover of Glitter Bomb too!
ReplyDeleteA pirate sleuth should be fun. Normally, the pirate is the bad one.
DeleteGLITTER BOMB looks good. ENJOY!!
ReplyDeleteI just finished Charles Belfoure's book, THE FALLEN ARCHITECT. It was EXCELLENT...love his books. I started BEDSIDE MANNERS by Heather Frimmer.
